review 1: When I first purchased "Zombie Rules" by David Achord, I did so after reading the description posted on a book marketing website and did not know it was part of a series. I very seldom read reviews before downloading a book because I am normally drawn in by the book cover and the story description.I enjoyed reading this book, for the most part, as the story showed more interaction between the characters and their struggles for survival during the zombie apocalypse - very similar to the television "Walking Dead Series". Our main protagonist, Zack, is only 16 years old but comes across much older and wiser for his age. Sure, they ran into zombies and living thieves on occasion, fighting to protect themselves and what they had - at times, it appeared like there was no way ... moreout and characters were going to die. Some do!Zombie Rules is entertaining, engaging and a roller coaster ride for readers once you get started. I do have some criticism about the author, David Achord's writing style. There aren't many typos, but extra words exist throughout the book - as if an editor forgot to delete them after making corrections. Also, I found myself stopping on occasion because something the author wrote raised a flag, kind of like, 'wait a minute, didn't he say something different earlier'? I love the old beekeeper - reminds me of Yoda in the Star Wars series. The ending left me deflated when it suddenly stopped! And the two chapter preview sample afterwards had nothing to do with the story I just finished - not offering any hints as to how the story continues. I would have guessed that any author who leaves readers hanging like that SHOULD have included something to satisfy readers and not move them to an entirety different story that he published.Now after reading the reviews I find there are two more books on Amazon for this continuing story. You have me hooked David, and I did purchase the next two Kindle books to see how the story progresses. I hope I am not disappointed!John Podlaski, authorCherries - A Vietnam War Novel
review 2: I tried and gave up half way through the book.I love books about zombies but the most important thing in these kind off books is humanity for me, the way people have to adjust to their new life, the way they treat other people, the new way to live your life. Zach wasn't bad guy he didn't deserved so much pain in his young life, but he became a killer before the zombies turned. This book was obviously written by a man, is screamed manly on every page. Zack did what he had to do to stay in life with his friend Rick. I couldn't connect to the characters this book was not for me. less
